"Mri. liryan and I are veiy fond of applea aud we eat one together every night before retiring. 8 he therefore joins me in thanking the club for tbeir much appreciated courtesy. "We may pass through Oregon in January, but fear we will not bave time to atop any place exoepting Port land and Eugeue. (I understand tbe state university is tit Eugene.) Am very glad U bear of the reelection of Governor Cbambeilain aud that you feel hopeful about the campaign of 1908. V Mr. Culbertaon says an effort will be made to hare Mr. Mr. Bryan stop off at Hood Kiver during his trip to tbe coast this winter aud that in a previous correspondence which be bad with tbat gontleman be 'stated that if bis itinerary can be so arrang ed be may decide to visit tbe Apple City. If be does a reoeption will be arranged for biui here by the Demo cratio club. Exhibited (Superb Apples. The exhibit of tbe Hood River Val ley Apple Growers' union, at tbtolr annual fruit fair, held this year at Hood Kiver, was one of tbe centers of interest in tbe fruit trade circles here tbia week. As announoed in tbe Journal last week R P. Loomis & Co., who bave contracted for the en tire output of tbe best varieties of apples grown by the union tbia sea son, arranged for tbe shipment of these prize winning apples to New York in order tbat tbe trade bere could bave an opportunity to sen tbe quality of apples wbioh they would have to offer. Ibe union also desired to show New York the cream of tbeir pioduet of wbicb tbey are justly proud and took conaideiable pains to pee that tbeir entire exhibit at the fair was taken care of and shipped bere iu tbe best possible condition. It arrived bere in a most perfect shape and none of those who inspect ed it wo'ild bave thought tbat it bad previously been shipped to tbe frait fair and then been resbipped here It was tbe original intention of E. P. Loomis & Co. to display the fruit in tbe new building wbiob tbey bave leased adjoining thfir present store at 9o Barclay street, but owing to an unavoidable delay iu getting into that building, it was found necessary to arrange a place for the exhibit on the sec oud Hoot of tbeir older building. Ibe employes of this firm bad tbe apples arra -.ged and labeled and ready for inspection Wednesday morning and it remained on exbibiion until Thursday 'afternoon. As the fame of the Hood Kiver valley apple baa al ready one abroad, and as this was the first opportunity that tbo trade here has bad to soe such a display of flue apples, representative members of tbe trade eagerly took advautuge of the opportunity afforded them aud visited tbe store in large numbers during tbe entice two days. All of tbe vis'tors praised tbe ex bibit, many ot them stating tbat it was th finest tbey bad ever seen, and others remarking that it was the best tbey bad witnessed siuce tbe World's fair. Tbe fruit was really as nearly perfect as oould be and tbe Hood River Valley Apple Growers an ion was bgbly commeuded for tbe care an I pains which they bave taken to provide tbe market with such fine fruit. It is of oouise a wel; known fact tbat tbe climatic conditions ot Hood River Valley are peculiarly adapted for tbe growing of fine apples there being no bugs or worms aud no scale to infest the fruit, but it is also a fact that tbe growers bave exerted themselves greatly . iu order to get the best possible results from tbeir natural advantages. Tbat they bave profited by doing this is evidenced by the high pr'cea wbicb tbeir apples are commanding wben tbe market Is glut ted with inferior stook and by tbe growing demand for it even at tbe high figures wbiob are being paid. While tbe yield of tbe Hood River orchards is constantly increasing, tbe demand is keeping pace with tbe in creased production, and it is tbe be lief of the best posted observers tbat the demand will oontinme to grow fast enough to take care . of all tbe high grade apples grown in the val ley in future years. The land baa en hanced in value phenomenally. Ibe orchards producing tbe best varieties of Hood River apples are now worth 11,000 per acre and are a profitable investment at these figures. . One thing demonstrated by tbe ex hibit bere this week was the fact tbat there are other extra fanoy varieties of apples gown in the Hood River val ley besides tbe Spitznberga and New town Pippins for Which it is already famous, for among the varieties shown which attracted especially favorable oomment were .Jonathans, Red Cheek, Hyde Kings, Winesaps, Ganoa, Arkansas Blacks, Ortleya, Northern Spy and Ben Davis. These showed an excellent color and keeping quali ty and several varieties of tbem will be obtainable after tbe Rpilzenbergs and Newtown Pippins bave been ex hausted, tbeir keeping qualities per mitting tbem to be bad until next spring. These apples oarre from tbe orchards from which EL P. Loomis 4 Co. will supply tbeir trade. Tbe entire exhibit was sold Thurs day afternoon to Aoker, Merrill & Condit, and tbat firm will place tbem on exhibition at tbeir various stores in New York and Brooklyn. Fruit Trade Journal. Apple Market Active. While there is still a surplus of ap ples in New York the market for good stook continues cteady, and tbcre is a free movement of choice varieties Ex porters bave purchased liberally iu the market bere because the export dema-.d for choice stock baa been so strong that there was not enough ot tbe right kind of fruit going forward on consignment to satisfy tbe de mand. Hamburg baa been taking quite a considerable quantity tbis week, l'J.UUU barrels going forward to that market on three steamers. Plas tically all of these were bought out right. Ibe demand bere for box apples from tbe northwest was active during the week aod tbe best western New York stock has also been in good re quest at firm prices. INotwltbstandiug tbat tbe embargo ou apples from points on tbe Deleware & Hudson ooutinuRB, holding baok shipments from northern New York, shipments bave been coming forward to New York principally from western New York at tbe rate of 40 to 50 car per day, aud the choice stock has beeu well cleaned np eaob day. J. 11 Killougb & Co., oue of tbe most re liable firms in tbe trade, consider tbe- out look generally favorable. Home of tbe exporters fear that heavy ship ments of Amercia.b apples abroad which bave been going out in con stantly increasing quantities during tbe past few weeks will cause foreign markets to become depressed, and some of tbem predict tbat shippers will be fortunate it tbey get even a fair margin of profit over prices raug- iDg on tbis side, ihe heaviest expor tation on a single ship on record was made Wednesday ou tbe as. Cauadiau wbiob carried 3,000 barrels of applet from Boston to Liverpool. Fruit Trade Journal. Largest Single Tract In Peaches. Wenatchee, Wash., Nov. 21. Arti cles ot inoo poratiou were filed yes terday by the McLean-Van Holder beke Land Fruit company. Tbe ob jects of tbe corporations as set forth In tbe articles of incorporation are to purchase and improve lands by plant ing orchards aud constructing a can nery to utilize fruit impracticable to nhip. Ihe Ufa of the corporation! is fixed at 50 years, and the capital stock $50,000. Tbe incorporators are L. McLean, Lottie McLean, A. Van Uolderbeks and Emily Van Holder beke, all of Spokane. Tbe corporation contemplates carry ing out a scheme planned some months ago of iriigating lands near Chelan . Fall and planting 2,000 aores to peach trees, making the Jargestor ohard in tbe United States devoted to that fruit alone. Tbe land lies across the Columbia river from Chelan Falls and it is thei intention of tbe promo ters of tbe project to irrigate the en tire tract by means of springs and tbe construction of a reservoir to oatob water from melting snow during tbe early spring Tbe trees for the oiobard are being grown in the nurse ry et out by Mr. Van Holderbeke in the Wenatobee valley two years ago and wbioh be intends to make one of the largest in the state. Spokesman Review. Differen ee in Favor of Ihlef. It must be mighty uncomfortable to be a town deadbeat. Tbe dead bent may not know It but be baa a yellow streak down bis back that causes tbe streets lights to turn pale wben he passes beneath tbem. Everybody has him spotted, be is distrusted by bis neighbors and tbe members of bis own profession refuse to associate with him aod be is treated with silent con tempt by tbe publio. If be bad a spark of manhood he would leave the town. Tbe deadbeat thinks be bas friends but be bas not. But tbe old deadbeat lives on, be smokes all tbe cigars and drinks all the whisky he can bam off tbe saloonkeeper or tbe stranger that passes through town. He .wheedles, whines and fawns to get responsible men to go bis security for loans and then brazenly tells tbem to settle tbe notes. Ibere is a difference between . a deadbeat and a thief, but it is all in favor of tbe thief. Blue Mountain Eagle. Ashamed to Take the Money. "Here, my dear," .aid a fond Mabton husband, producing a roll ! bills, "here is t40 1 won playing pok er last night aud you ma bav it to buy tbat new drees yon wanted." Re luctantly the conscientious wife took tbe money, then said witb an expres sion of rectitude, "I simply shudder at the thought of using money gained I in sucb a way. Henry, promise me tbat after you bave won enough for me to buy a hat to go witb tbe dress, you will never again toncb those aw ful cards. I don't want my husband to become gamabler." Exohange.

The Youth's Companion, 144 Berke ley street, Boston, Mass. l Just as Hood as Hood River. Some of tbe Hood River apple rais ers bave beeu irritated by tbe asser tions of apple growers iu other parts of tbe ktute, tbit tbey oan raise just as good apples us Hood Kiver apples. Every time tbis assertion is made in public it advertises tbe merits of tbe Hood River apples. It would be bard to think of a higher compliment which could be paid to an artiole than to bave it sot up aa the standard of excellence which other produoers of a similar article claim to be able to equal Rural Northwest. - ':lo On Ksbxt J-A.Folger&C9'5 Gojjjffi&te mm poim JOHN LELAND HENDERSON, Pres.
